Course description
The course examines the relationship between culture and the design of the built environment. The major emphasis is on understanding the impacts of culturally distinct behaviours, relationships and life-ways, primarily examined using studies drawn from the Indigenous Australia. There is also an opportunity to draw on examples from other cultural groups.
